A Russian-built Soyuz rocket launches from the Baikonur launch facility in Kazakhstan on Tuesday. The three people on board will spend five months at the International Space Station. The crew will join NASA's Sunita Williams, Russia's Yuri Malenchenko and Japan's Akihiko Hoshide, who arrived in July and are due to leave in mid-November. The mission was delayed for eight days due to equipment problems.
